putting a bar over a letter in a figure using LaTex in text mode

Hej, I would like to draw a letter with a bar over it in the ylabel using text mode (I don't like the font style in math mode). I'm using

    ylabel('\={foo}','interpreter','latex');

but it produces

    Warning: Unable to interpret TeX string "\={foo}"

Why? :(

Thanks in advance!

What version are you using? It works for me (11a).

Works for me too (10b, Mac OS 10.6).

Since we can't reproduce this on our systems, you probably should contact MATLAB Support.

my bad, the error is actually

   Warning: Unable to interpret LaTeX string "\={foo}"

still having the problem with the bar :(
